Take a bit of time to smooth the mix out. This will be visible as the inside of the planter. When you're finished, let the mix set up for about 5-10 minutes. This time will vary depending on the temperature and humidity where you're working. To check the mix, lift up a corner of the fabric. If it slumps down, it's still too wet. If it cracks, you've waited a bit too long and should put the piece in the bowl right away.

STEP 5: Drape into Bowl

If you have a small piece, you can do this yourself. For larger pieces, it's much easier with a helper. Lift up on the tabs and gently drop the piece into the bowl. Let the edges fold naturally.

STEP 6: Smooth any Cracks

Smooth out any cracks that may have formed in the tighter bends and clean up the inside of the planter by removing any loose material.

STEP 7: Cover and Cure

Cover the piece with plastic and allow it to cure for at least 24 hours.

STEP 8: Remove Fabric

Gently pull the fabric away from the planter, being especially careful in the tight bends.
